Chapter 406: Wen Plays Walnuts
Early the next morning, Fang Ming left the oasis, there were Niu Ping people in the excavation of the site, he didn't need to worry at all, all of them were experienced people, and they would definitely be able to handle everything in an orderly manner. All Fang Ming had to do now was to pick up Ke Liu, with the guidance of the Heavenly Saker, he didn't have to worry about getting lost at all, so he walked smoothly, and it took him five days to leave the desert and return to Zhao Matie's town. The town was very small and there were not many people, but Fang Ming came back this time with a sense of prosperity.
Shaking his head, Fang Ming knew that it was because he had been in the desert for too long and had seen too few people, so he felt like this.
found a place, Fang Ming first filled his mobile phone, and then called Ke Liu, knowing that she was about to get on the plane, on the way here, and then called Zhou Yafang, this call attracted a number of people, of course, there are not many people who have fallen Jiang Wen, the two of them have a good training on the mobile phone, and the biggest sin is not to call back for such a long time.
Fang Ming immediately explained that he was in the desert, his mobile phone was out of battery, and he couldn't make calls, but this reason was immediately recognized by Zhou Yafang and Jiang Wen as an excuse, and they continued to "criticize". The attack lasted for nearly half an hour before it ended "reluctantly".
"It's finally over!"
Fang Ming took a look at the mobile phone and found that the power was already running out again, and he thought that although the current smartphone was good and very convenient to use, the battery was ...... It's really not very useful.
Touching his chin, he simply found a mobile phone in a store and spent money to buy a "traditional" mobile phone, plus a bunch of batteries, which is estimated to last for a few months. A Gu Brain was stuffed into his bag, Fang Ming was relieved, the days without a mobile phone after getting used to it were too difficult.
I found a place to eat, a place to take a bath, and then I went to sleep, although it is said that I have a good time in the desert these days, but after all, it is impossible to be as convenient and comfortable as in the city.
After waking up, Fang Ming got into the car, shook for twenty hours, and arrived in Central China County, where he and Ke Liu agreed to meet.
When Fang Ming arrived, Ke Liu hadn't arrived yet, it was estimated that it would take about ten hours, he had already slept before he came, and he had slept again in the car, and now he was full of strength, and he didn't want to sleep for a long time.
"Boss, let's have a bowl of noodles."
After getting out of the car, seeing that it was still early, Fang Ming simply found a small noodle restaurant to eat.
"Okay!"
The shopkeeper, a strong man in his forties, answered the call and opened the cauldron, put the noodles that had been prepared long ago into the water, scooped them up and put them in a bowl two minutes later, and then poured soup and seasonings, and a bowl of noodles was served.
"Boss, inquire about something, is there anything interesting in the neighborhood recently, something new."
There were no other customers in the store, Fang Ming chatted with the shopkeeper while pulling noodles.
"You're from out of town, aren't you? Oh, in our small county, there's nothing to do. ”
The shopkeeper was a talkative person, and simply sat down opposite Fang Ming.
"People say that the sparrow is small, but it has all the organs, no matter how big or small the county is, there are always fun things, I play antiques, I don't know if the boss has any antique shops or places like that?"
"Antique shop? There is no such thing in a small county like ours...... Oh, by the way, I heard that there are walnuts sold in the south of the city, I don't know if this counts? I've heard that someone is collecting it, what is there to collect this thing? It's just something to eat......
Fang Ming's eyes lit up when he heard this.
Of course, walnuts can be eaten, but they can also be collected.
As the saying goes, "literati play walnuts, warriors turn iron balls, rich people carry gourds, and idlers go to walk dogs", which refers to the walnuts in the collection, which is the so-called "literary walnuts".
The meaning of walnut is to select the type and color of walnut, and the walnut is a collectible walnut formed after processing. The value of the collection mainly reflects that the texture should be deep and clear, the size should be consistent, the weight should be comparable, and the texture should be as consistent as possible, so you can imagine how much time it will take to find a pair. If the natural walnut is processed and carved by a famous person, and then after years of playing, it will appear old red, which is very precious.
Playing with walnuts can strengthen the body, this function has long been scientifically proven, kneading walnuts can delay the aging of the body, to prevent cardiovascular disease, to avoid stroke, etc.
Wild walnuts are used in cultural play, and since 05 years, because there are more people playing walnuts, there have been grafted, but the quality is relatively poor, according to the different origins and types, generally speaking, it is divided into three categories: hemp walnut, catalpa walnut, and iron walnut. Among them, the best is hemp walnut, which is divided into arhat head, lion head, arhat head, tiger head, chicken heart, boy hat and so on.
The therapeutic effect of walnuts has long been realized, there is a "palm bead" saying, as for the ancient times it is called "kneading walnuts", historically it originated in the Han and Sui dynasties, popular in the Tang and Song dynasties, prevailed in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and finally formed a special walnut collection, appreciation culture.
The Ming and Qing dynasties were the most "crazy" years of walnuts, this is because the emperor is a crazy lover of this, for example, the historical Emperor Zhu Youxiao is an idiot who plays walnuts, he does not leave walnuts, and he also carves walnuts by himself, and finally even says that he is in the wild history
"Playing walnuts and forgetting state affairs, Zhu Youxiao is in charge of the imperial case".
In the Qing Dynasty, this was even more so, and the legend said that Qianlong was also a master in this area, and it is said that he wrote a poem: "The sun and the moon rotate in the palm, and time wants to go back." The whole body is full of qi and blood, when is it a white head? ”
Walnut became one of the treasures of Baylor's "Three Treasures" at that time: Baylor had three treasures, wrench, walnut, and caged bird! From this, you can see how "crazy" it was to play walnuts at that time.
Walnuts are widely distributed, it can be said that most of the country has the growth of walnuts, but not all walnuts are able to be used to collect that is, to meet the standard walnut standards, at present, the production areas of walnuts that can meet the standards are mainly concentrated in North China, Northwest, Northeast and Southwest China.
Among these regions, the quality of walnuts in Beijing, Tianjin, Shanxi and other places is the most outstanding, that is, the origin of traditional excellent varieties, because the climate and soil in these places are very suitable for the growth of walnuts.
Northwest China, mainly including Shanxi, Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningbo regions, for example, Shaanxi Qinling mainly produces walnuts with large size, full appearance and many burrs. The best walnuts in this region come from Shanxi, and its son's hat, official hat, and lion's head are quite famous, especially the walnuts produced in the mountainous areas of Hebei are of good quality, basically all wild walnuts!
Fang Ming had read these materials before, but because he had been busy, he hadn't specifically investigated them, but he didn't expect to encounter them in such a small town.
"Seongnam huh? Ha! I'll take a look. ”
With a place to go, where can Fang Ming still sit? He quickly finished eating the noodles and paid for them, then got up and rushed out.
The county seat is very small, forget about the bus, Fang Ming casually beckoned one of the most common motorcycles, said that he was going to the place in the south of the city to sell walnuts, and immediately went to the smoke.
After arriving, Fang Ming looked, good guy, there were dozens of walnut stalls along a small street! Crowded in front of every stall
It was full of people, and even the air was filled with the aroma of walnuts.
"That's a lot of scale!"
When he got to the ground, Fang Ming was not in a hurry, this is also the accumulated experience, slow work and meticulous work, especially in the line of playing antique collection, it is impossible to be in a hurry, in a hurry, it is likely to make mistakes, or let others see that you want it very much, the price is very high, etc., this is a big taboo among the taboos.
Especially when you are new to a place, you must be optimistic before starting, and the first step is to understand the market.
Fang Ming had never played walnuts before, although he knew the price, but he didn't dare to take it lightly, so Fang Ming started from the first stall, first stood outside the crowd to watch, and after listening to the chat between others and the stall owner for a while, he would get into the crowd, squat down in front of the stall and pick up some of the walnuts to get started, and feel it.
After looking at a stall, Fang Ming would change to another stall.
After watching more than ten stalls in a row, Fang Ming had a deeper understanding of walnuts. At this time, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon, and Fang Ming decided to take a rest first.
Because there are a lot of people here, and there are some mobile food stalls that follow, Fang Ming didn't pay attention to it, so he just bought a boxed lunch and squatted down to eat. There are actually a lot of people like Fang Ming, everyone comes here to buy walnuts, whether they are enthusiasts or opening shops, they all come for walnuts, and if you eat them, just deal with them.
"Hello, my name is Rowan, I don't know what you call it?"
Fang Ming had just taken two bites of food, and a big man next to him who was squatting like him had spoken first.
"Fang Ming, it seems that the harvest is not small."
Fang Ming found that there was a bag next to Luo Wen's leg, which was bulging, and it looked like it should be filled with walnuts.
"Hah! It's okay, I opened a store, and I heard that the walnuts here are good, so I came to take a look, and I really picked a lot of good things. ”
Rowan seems to be a relatively straightforward person, and those who do this business are basically extroverted, so soon Fang Ming and the other party opened up the conversation.
Early the next morning, Fang Ming left the oasis, there were Niu Ping people in the excavation of the site, he didn't need to worry at all, all of them were experienced people, and they would definitely be able to handle everything in an orderly manner.
